Troubleshooting
Low water flow or pressure
Check if the water pressure is within the 1-6 bar range. Ensure the shower head and wall arm connections are not blocked. Clean the silicone nozzles.
Water spraying unevenly
Mineral buildup on the silicone nozzles can cause this. Gently rub the nozzles to clear them. If buildup persists, remove the shower head and clean with a mild descaling solution.
Leaks from connection points
Ensure all connections are tightened securely. Check for any damage to seals or threads. Reapply plumbing tape if necessary.
Chrome finish appearing dull
Clean the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive pads that can scratch the finish.
